AQUA-OZONE HYGIENIZATION
A method of treatment using an aqua-ozone hygienization system enables versatile hygienization of items. The method includes placing an item in a tank, generating ozonated concentrate liquid from water via an electrochemical generator, and treating the item with atomized mist or spray using a nozzle. An egress port manages liquid flow, allowing or preventing accumulation in the tank. The system can perform deodorizing mist, disinfecting spray, or immersion treatments, with an ingress port for filling the water reservoir. A platform within the tank adjusts between extended and retracted positions for immersion. The system may include a concave portion for an external nozzle to fill a portable vessel with ozonated concentrate liquid. Additionally, it features a replaceable consumables cartridge, ozone concentration sensors, and a control system with a communication interface and GPS for sending operational status messages to remote resources. This method provides efficient, customizable, and adaptable treatment options.
